In addition, make-boot-splash-raw seems to not handle the failure properly, creating empty initramfs instead. I'm going to look at this right now to fix at least the first one. I'm not 100% sure if this add_boot_splash() stuff is needed at all (for customs bootsplashes maybe?), but I'll leave that for Colin to look at :) -- Anssi Hannula
